The Model Y refresh black headliner and the Model Y 16 inch screen standard are now included on the cheapest Tesla Model Y configurations. Both the rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive versions get these upgrades at no extra cost.
This move brings premium touches like the black headliner and larger screen to the Tesla Model Y RWD refresh and Model Y AWD new features. The base Model Y Juniper base model starts at $39,990 for RWD and $41,990 for AWD, with financing as low as 0% or 0.99% APR on select variants.
I've seen the black headliner in person and it looks sharp, giving the cabin a more upscale feel. Pairing it with the bigger screen makes the entry-level cars feel closer to higher trims. It is interesting that Tesla chose to standardize these on the most affordable models rather than holding them back.
For anyone considering a purchase, these changes improve the daily experience without raising the price. If you want more details on the refreshed AWD, check out my full breakdown in the Tesla Model Y Juniper AWD review.
Tesla vehicles still ship with almost no accessories, so most owners add a few essentials right away. My top picks from Jowua include their phone mount for Full Self-Driving, a center console organizer, and the under-screen station. Jowua Tesla accessories — phone mounts, center consoles, and more offers free shipping on orders over $120 and accepts the promo code from the video description.

The timing also raises the question of when the Model 3 will see similar updates, possibly as early as next quarter. Overall, the Model Y refresh black headliner update makes the base cars more appealing than ever.
